BATTERY GAS IS EXPLOSIVE<br />

• Wear safety glasses.<br />

• Do not smoke.<br />

• To reduce arcing when disconnecting or reconnecting<br />

battery cables, always disconnect the<br />

negative (−) battery cable first and reconnect<br />

it last.<br />

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS<br />

• Keep children away from the genset.<br />

• To prevent accidental or remote starting while<br />

working on the genset, disconnect the negative<br />

(−) battery cable at the battery.<br />

• Keep the genset and its compartment clean.<br />

Excess oil and oily rags can catch fire. Dirt and<br />

gear stowed in the compartment can restrict<br />

cooling air.<br />

• Make sure all fasteners are secure and<br />

torqued properly.<br />

• Do not work on the genset when mentally or<br />

physically fatigued or after consuming alcohol<br />

or drugs.<br />

• You must be trained and experienced to make<br />

adjustments while the genset is running—hot,<br />

moving or electrically live parts can cause severe<br />

personal injury or death.<br />

• Used engine oil has been identified by some<br />

U. S. state and federal agencies as causing<br />

cancer or reproductive toxicity. Do not ingest,<br />

inhale, or contact used oil or its vapors.<br />

• Benzene and lead in some gasolines have<br />

been identified by some state and federal<br />

agencies as causing cancer or reproductive<br />

toxicity. Do not ingest, inhale or contact gasoline<br />

or its vapors.<br />

• Keep multi-class ABC fire extinguishers readily<br />

at hand. Class A fires involve ordinary combustible<br />

materials such as wood and cloth.<br />

Class B fires involve combustible and flammable<br />

liquids and gaseous fuels. Class C fires<br />

involve live electrical equipment. (ref. NFPA<br />

No. 10)<br />

• Genset installation and operation must comply<br />

with all applicable local, state and federal<br />

codes and regulations.<br />
